Why Software Testing Is Important. An average mobile app contains about 50,000 lines of code, Microsoft Windows operating system has about 50 million lines of code, while Google’s entire code base is estimated to contain 2 billion lines of code. So how does the software tester decide what to test?

When you're working with any code, whether it's automation or software code, it should be treated the same way. One of the many things that don't come up as often when you're automating vs when you're building application code is testing. After-all, functions are still functions and variables are still variables.

It sits at the very beginning of the process before the code is written and can save an immense amount of time down the road (of somebody spending tons of time just to get to a dead-end). I really like what one of the smartest people with whom I worked said: “A good design is a design where you can see the code”. Important note.
